REAL OF ARTIFICAL TREE

I HAVE A ARTIFICAL TREE  THAT WAY THERE TO WORRYING ABOUT FIRES

[bowrunner]

I prefer a real tree but usually have an artifical tree because I can get a small one to put on a table and don't have to worry about my dogs getting the ornaments.

As a child, we always had a real tree from our own back 40.  (Lived on a farm with woods.)  Really got into the spirit of the season putting up and trimming the tree! 

But since I went off to work, I've always had an artificial tree.  The first one was 5 ft tall which became a hassle to set up, trim and then take down.  It changed to a 3 ft tree on a table.  Still a hassle, so now I have a small (1.5 ft) decorated tree that's easy to handle.

I live in Oregon, so naturally I have a fresh cut live tree and it wouldn't be Christmas without it. Just the fragrance would be enough to make the decision for me.

When you cut them yourself and treat them right, there is little fire danger and my last one was an eight foot Noble Fir that cost me $15. I guess that's just one more advantage of living here.

I love the smell of real treees but due to fires we went with artificial trees. The real trees have gotten so expensive too.

Last year was our first artificial tree. The real trees cost way too much. This year we will be putting back up our artificial tree. I love the smell of a real tree.

We have an artificial tree; we have relatives with allergies.

I love a real Christmas tree. That fresh smell that smell up the whole house is a part of that Christmas feel. Although there are a lot of artificial trees that look nice, they don't have that smell or the adventure of going to the lots trying to find that perfect one.

I usually put up an artificial tree but have not for the last several years because we had gotten a puppy & 2 kittens.
I knew if we put it up it was bound to be knocked down.

They are all 3 years old now and a little bit calmer so this may be the year to start putting the tree up again.

You would still have the possibility of fires from the Christmas lights with an artificial tree.  I go with neither.

I use a artificial tree because I am allergic to realones and less mess to clean up after christmas

We always have a real tree. Or should I say, a natural tree? My co-worker likes to point out that even the artificial ones are real - they are visible and actually made up of something so you can see and feel them! (see what I have to put up with at work LOL!)
